John Kinsel Sr., one of last remaining Navajo Code Talkers from World War II, passed away peacefully on October 19, 2024 at the age of 107. His life embodied the importance of the Navajo Code Talkers in U.S. military history. They transmitted messages during World War II based on the tribe's native Diné bizaad language in a code that Japanese cryptologists were unable to break.

Cover Story: Heroes Meet Heroes 2024

On November 7, WeSalute held its fifth streaming of the “Heroes Meet Heroes” event, where military heroes meet Olympic heroes. Moderated by WeSalute co-founder and Chairman Scott Higgins, the annual conversation was started 12 years ago by WeSalute CEO Lin Higgins. It celebrates both the military and sports successes and similarities across two panel discussions. This year’s session was dedicated to Captain Paul “Bud” Bucha, a Medal of Honor recipient and longtime member of the WeSalute Advisory Board who passed away this year at the age of 80.
